the gun laws in australia are state laws as primarily the merp gun laws are, too. for many years we saw the problem of some states having title laws and those being undermined by the states where the laws were much less tight. and that's a very big problem in the u.s. where there's a iron pipeline that goes from the states with lax laws to the states with tight laws. after the massacre there was an agreement which said -- all states are going to pass laws meeting a certain standard. the standards in the national firearms agreement were that number one, a ban on semiautomatic rifles and shotguns. ban on assault weapons and a e buy-back program. uniform licensing standards. registration of all guns. strong standards on safe storage. waiting periods. and the -- perhaps the most important thing was the fact that every gun sale had to be subject to a very high standard of background checks. not only for criminal convictions, but also, domestic violence and things like that. the system makes it possible, especially because there is a waiting period, it makes it possible
